Pleasure of the world is only apparent happiness, but it contains much
intoxication, in the fancy of which, mankind becomes careless from his original
condition. The same state of intoxication is of the liquor, which makes the
mankind; not only careless from any misfortune; but charms in imaginary
gladness. Then, for keeping up this ideal pleasure, he drinks again and again,
so that the intoxication should not lessen and the fascination should be
preserved in thought.

In the same way, lovers of worldly pleasure try to maintain it, so that
they may forget the actual matters always in its intoxication, which desire to
guide the human being towards the Right Path. The Messengers of Allah Almighty (peace
be upon them) want to shake off the mankind from such intoxication, so that
their sense may begin to work positively. The human beings should not give any
importance to the pleasantness of this life because it is just like a bubble of
water. The life should appear before him in its original color, so that he may
observe that it is a field; full of thorns and shrubs. He would have to cross
it carefully by saving his clothes, so that he may reach the Straight Path of
God’s Cognizance, then move on it during life time and try to acquire pleasure
of Allah Almighty wholeheartedly.

The tribe of Thamud did not seek this Path; although Prophet Salih
(peace be upon him) caused to know them. Ultimately, Allah Almighty sends His
Commandment to anyone of the worldly forces; which He has produced: Destroy
this rebellious nation. His Commandment is obeyed immediately and the obstinate
people are slain, the death of disgrace. Allah Almighty saves Prophet Salih
(peace be upon him) along with his companions who believed, from the ignominy,
by a mercy from Him. All forces and powers of the world are proved as a
spider’s web when Power of Allah Almighty appears.
